Fuel Handling Precautions

The following section outlines informa tion on handling
fuel safety that shouldn't be ignored to ensure the
upmost safety at all times.
The vapour that fuel creates is extremely flammable,
toxic and explosive in confined areas. It produces
around 150 times its own volume when it evaporates
and when mixed with air it beguns very ignitable. The
vapour will always fall to the lowest level because it is
heavier than air. This creates a problem because it is
very easliy distributed throughout a workshop so even
the smallest of spillages could be dangerous. A fire
extinguisher containing FOAM
should always be close at hand when handling fuel.
